Cognitive Perception among Post-Chemotherapy, Non-Chemotherapy Breast Cancer Survivors and Non-Cancer.
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThis study aims to compare the cognitive function perceived by post-chemotherapy breast cancer survivors, breast cancer survivors without chemotherapy, and non-cancer woman patients.
methodsThis study was conducted by a descriptive comparative method. The respondents consisted of 82 survivors of post-chemotherapy breast cancer, 81 non-chemotherapy breast cancer survivors, and 80 non-cancer woman patients who were recruited using consecutive sampling. The data were collected from October until December 2017 by using a FACT-Cog version 3 questionnaire. Data analysis was performed by using a comparative test of Kruskal-Wallis followed by a Mann-Whitney posthoc analysis.
resultsThe results showed that the median of cognitive function perception in breast cancer survivors post-chemotherapy, non-chemotherapy, and non-cancerous women are 94 (52-122), 113 (53-130), and 121 (69-132), respectively. Mann-Whitney's post-hoc analysis showed a significantly different perception of cognitive function between post-chemotherapy survivors and non-chemotherapy survivors; also between post-chemotherapy survivors and non-cancer women, and between non-chemotherapy survivors with non-cancer women.
conclusionPerceived cognitive impairment, comments from others, perceived cognitive abilities, and effects on quality of life in breast cancer survivors who received chemotherapy are significantly different as compared to the survivor group without chemotherapy and non-cancerous healthy women.
